Cavan's performance there should knock any talk of a loser's competition on the head.

If a team can't get up for playing Tyrone to get to the Super 8 in the actual All-Ireland championship, one can only shudder at the thought of the sort of abject efforts that would be put in in a loser's competition.

A pathetic embarrassing showing from cavan. I genuinely thought we'd give Tyrone a scare today. If  Terry Hyland was in charge for that there would be people looking for his head.  Tyrone are miles ahead of us and the gap is widening not closing. Instead of standing up and being counted we gave up, killian Clarke did his best to get the line to avoid further shame. Woeful.

Forgot about Cassidys point! Umpires are actually in a shit position to judge such things when you think about it. Should have been the refs call, but he was so bad today its no surprise he got it wrong, along with five or six other decisions. Good job it wasn't close.

Ffs, even Antrim didn't get beaten by that much!!
Very poor from Cavan.
Perhaps the secret weapon, the Mickey Graham effect, was overhyped by a factor of 100.

We will never know as your two teams were booted out already.

Black card the way it's used is a scourge.
It's a blemish on Gaelic football since it's inception... Seen a 13 year old being sent off in a county final by yet another incompetent misapplication in Tyrone this week. This card is one step too far for referees and is a scourge of our game. Those who argued for it to be brought in should be ashamed of themselves although their legal defence is the law of unintended consequences. In other words how could we have known any different as we know Jack shit..

Booted but not shat upon.

Just heard Mickey Harte saying, apart from the black card, that  Cassidy had a great gsme.  He even went as far as saying he congratulated him after the game!!!

Captain Obvious

As i said before the match Tyrone seemed to click into action during that Kildare match and its hard for teams like Cavan to stand a chance against them when in full flow however tonight they looked like a side that has been a state of depression since the draw was made. A nightmare draw for them really.



yellowcard

Mickey Harte has proven his tactical astuteness again over the last few games and Tyrone have found their mojo again playing the style of football that suits them best. Hard running, counter attacking possession game. They don't have the quality of inside forwards up front to play any differently. If he manages to help navigate this Tyrone side through the super 8s again and into another AI final then the man is a tactical genius and is maximizing the talent at his disposal which is all you can do as a manager.

the highlight was the supporters that came in from the terracing to take penalties against the wee stewards at half time.

Barry Cassidy needs to go back to ref school for a black card education. Man's fecking deluded.

I'll stand my comment on his diving. It's a scourge on the game. Good luck in the last 8!

Walter, I agree 100% with you, diving is a scourge on football at the minute and the biggest culprit is your own county man. McKaigue buys fouls for fun, dives or goes to ground at contact in every opportunity and shit referees in Derry let him away with it. If Barry Cassidy and that quartet of umpires is the best Derry can offer then lord save us........
